Picture poetry
Found in 1791 Collections and/or Records:
Elegy for Whimbrel and Petrel: petrol / Finlay, Ian Hamilton ; Gardner, Ian., 1971
The image in shades of brown-grays, tipped to the inside of the card, depicts a sailing ship with hoists resembling bird beaks. The foreground shows the sea with smudges resembling an oil slick. In the background is a shore line. No birds appear in t perhaps because petrol leaks from an oil tanker have contaminated their feeding environment. Whimbrel and Petrel are sea shore birds which might be rendered extinct because of lack of attention to oil spills - hence the use of "Elegy" in the title. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
